Are there any Purdue Calumet or Purdue North Central nursing students (past, present or future) on the forums?
These are two of the schools I have applied to. I would really love to get the 411 from a nursing student (clincial sites, books, classloads)
No one?

Hello,
I graduated from Purdue in 1980 Mrs. Givens was my first year instructor!!! Dr. Ellis was the director and unfortunately passed away from cancer some years later. I believe that although the course is demanding it truly prepared me to be the best RN I could be!!!!!!!!! Mrs. Givens once told me that I wouldn't do well as I was a Loner.......I continued to do trauma flight, open heart, cath lab and Emergency medicine. I am CCRN CEN CRNI CPN BSN. I feel they do have the best program around to prepare you to be a nurse but they demand alot from you!!!! My sister also is a purdue grad now with her masters. I am a lowly supervisor now in Boston but still believe all the frustration and work there made me what I am today!!!! GOOD LUCK!!
WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF NURSING! :biggringi Lost in boston home sick for valpo.
Thank you so much for posting LOST IN BOSTON.
I forgot if the sites are the same..Purdue cal: Dyer,Margaret's hammond, St mary's gary..closed, St Catherines East chicago,St anthony's Crown Point
Purdue North: Porter Memorial, Michigan City St anthony's(if it is still called that), St Mary's Hobart. I believe they added Munster also but It was long ago for me and I have lived in Boston a long time...Sometimes Broadway methodist...but my family still lives in Porter County and go home all the time.
Books??!! We bought them on campus then but there was, hold your hat, no internet to find used!!!! The school should have a list posted Good luck
If you Need help...e-mail any time!!!!! I'll be glad to help although critical care is my forte me
